Aluminium-magnesium alloy with 6% Mg

Almag6 is a new generation of aluminium alloy developed by Gränges Konin, dedicated for automotive industry (especially for internal car body parts), ICT industry and for household appliances as well. This material allows to reduce the weight of components by reducing input strip/sheet thickness and also to replace standard aluminium alloys and steel used for constructions. Thanks to increased content of magnesium, Almag6 alloy is characterized by very high strength performance (higher than standard EN AW-5xxx series alloys) with better formability. Especially in O temper Almag6 have steel-like excellent deep drawability. Good corrosion resistance is obtained as a result of using dedicated technological process. An additional benefit is the positive effect on the natural environment – fully recyclable material.
